Advice for Underclassmen

I have found a ton of good information in a blog created by the LSU women's coach Bob Starkey, this past Tuesday he had a handout created by Kevin Eastman called "Rookie Awareness". I have picked out three things I wanted to pass along to the underclassmen.

1. Be strong enough to make your own decisions. All players know what is right and what is wrong in every situation. If in doubt, know that it's probably wrong.

2. Your youth should not be an excuse. You have as much right to play as the veterans do! Respect them, but don't be afraid to compete against them.

3. Remember, coaches always see players who dive on the floor, take charges, encourage teammates, play unselfishly, and defend their tails off!
